Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, reportedly is distressed that topless photos of her were to appear in a French magazine on Sept. 14. William and those at the palace aren't too thrilled about it, either. There was no strip pool in this case, but there was a swimming pool. The duke and duchess were apparently sunbathing during a vacation in Provence. Kate took off her top (no messy tan lines), and a photographer used a long lens to capture the sight, according to the Telegraph. St. James' Palace said in a statement that "legal proceedings for breach of privacy have been commenced today in France" by the royal couple.
